In only thirty-sla hours, without the kjaa of a s‘ngie issue and with no Intemintion whatever to the publication of the TIMES, the task of moving the TIMES wna accomplished. While the old presses in the building on West Jersey Avenue were still grinding out Friday's edition, a small army of m-chlnlsts. electricians, printer* and other workmen were dismantling the army of machinery and equipment crowded Into the former

cramped quarters.

As soon as The Seven Mile Beach Reporter had been "put to bed." as the typos term it (meaning gone to press), workmen commenced the removal of such machinery as was not essential to the publication of this edition. As rapidly as each piece of machinery was released It was disconnected. mounted or. speciallyconstructed skid* and hauled or huge motor trucks to the new plant where another group of skilled mechanics aseOnhled and connected the Incoming equipment ready for Immediate The transportation of many tons of maehlnecy. desks and other equipment was carried out according to schedule* previously planned and de vised.

Building Is Attractive Lender of Its Kind in the Connty

Says the Architect

Mark B. Reeves, designer of the TIMES’ Building, expressed an opin ion. when the plans for the building were accepted, that it would be one of the most attractive buildings of its kind *n tbe County. Since the completion of the bonding tbe opinion has been expressed by many of tbe disinterested persons that viewed the building Mr. Reeves is one of the most prominent architects and builders in Cape May County. He comes of a fa-ally of builders. Mr. Reeves' father. Stacy Been many years was president of the Builders' Exchange of Philadelphia. He dca^ned and supervised building of the Drexel Building in Philadelphia which at that time considered an achievement In office building. After graduating from Friends Centra'. School. Mark completed « course in architectural designing and for a number of years followed his profession in Philadelphia. In 1910 he moved his offices to Wildwood and since then designed and built many building* throughout tbe County. Among tbe buildings that he erected or designed are tbe original Hunt's Casino Theatre, Casino Auditorium. Reading Station. Union National Bank. Sialler Apaitmenu and St. Anr's Auditorium, all In Wildwood. Among tbe industrial plants are Otter s Harbor Cold Storage Plant and Koeneke* warehouse

and show rooms.

Mr. Beeves is a pioneer in advocating advanced method* in building Referring to stucco Mr Reew stated that the only material that comp;

C. H. Shaw t Co. made remarkble time ia laying the roof on tbe new TIMES' Building It required just five days from the time tbe first piece of material was brought top of the building until It wa pleted. The roof is a well-known Carey £ ag Roof, which contains ingredients that are practically Immune from the havoc that wrought on the seashore roofs by the

salt air.

C. H. Shaw A Co. Is one of the best known roofing and sheet metal concerns in South Jersey. Tbe firm consists of C. H. Shaw and his son. Earl to Shaw. C. F. Shaw established the' bu '.ness forty-three years ago in' Woodbury. N. J. Their office wasi moved to Ocean City about five years! ago. Though engaged in all t-anehesj of sheet metal work they made a| special study of roofing problems along the cotii. and hare found from experience that the Carey roofing products were the most suitable and satisfactory roofs for this section. They are sole agents for Carey roofing materials in South Jersey. Among the more important contract*: I, that they have completed are the covering of the Hotel Pierpont. Atlantic City. Moorlyn Theatre. Ocean City, and ct the present time are working on the new Hotel Flandei* in Ocean City. Tbe company has contracted to lay a tile roof on the new Baptist Church at Wildwood. In an Interview with Earl to Shaw, the writer gleaned ting information regarding roofing, roofa and their care. Contrary to tbe usual supposition that a tin roof will not give satisfactory service at seashore resorts. Mr. Shsw elated that a properly laid tin roof would last fifty years st the seashore providing the owner would give coat of paint every two years. Referring to the agitation to replace wooden shingle roofs with those of fireproof construction, he credited it to tbe advertising and publicity that
